Small gate or garden gate premade. Where?

[mallmagician]

Does anyone know if a small gate can be bought off the shelf here in chiang mai?

I only need a small hinged gate to use as the access point for my garden. So it only needs to be I guess 1.2metre tall by 1m wide.

Would global have these? Anywhere else? Or do I need to get one made by one of the front gate manufacturers?

Thanks

Global doesn't sell them, in wood or metal.

Another common western item to go on the list of "mai mee"

Probably easier to get a personnel gate made in metal , many metalworking shops dotted about.

Ah ok. Thanks. Saved me a wasted trip. Hehe. Will go speak to some gate metal shops instead. Cheers

Wow. These gate places are in a world of their own when it comes to pricing. Because we aren't wanting a whole house worth of gates and security bars, they are all wanting circa 15,000 for the simplest 1.2 x 1 metre gate.

Going to see what results we can get from an odd jobs guy.

Sounds like that's the price of a pucker dipped, galvanised and chromed.

Shouldn't be too difficult to find one for a 1000bt that you will have to paint 6 times a year.

Was thinking of something in between. Found someone that is doing one for 4500. Which should last a while. With an annual splash of paint.

Cheers.

If they have a Thai Watsadu branch up there they may have it but if not should be able to direct you to where to go.

If you have a wood fence, it might be cheaper to buy a solid-core exterior door and cut it down to the height you want just above the middle hinge.

Did you try going to the stainless steel fence makers from what I have seen here around Trat they are ridiculously cheap .

I have an iron monger who made me a similar piece for ฿600. He came and installed it, too. It was steel and painted white, as I requested.
